Where The Players Are
It's now been almost 10 months since we brought This Week in the Realm back as a Steam blog post, and over that time we've been watching how many players engage with it and comparing it to how we've communicated information before. On average, over 30,000 players read these weekly blogs, which makes it by far the most viewed space for Paladins updates. Beyond our socials, beyond the website, beyond even some YouTube trailers. We really appreciate everyone who takes time to catch up on the smaller developments we share here & want to get that information in front of more players' eyes, which brings us to some news.
The Paladins website has long suffered from issues in key moments of communication, as well as required significant upkeep from us despite less users than any other platform we utilize. Simply put: a dedicated website for news doesn't make sense anymore with how players are actually consuming content. As such, it's being archived and all future Update Notes, Chronicles, and blog posts will be hosted here on Steam and/or provided on our Support page. The New & Returning Player Guide, for example, already has been moved over to our Support offerings, merging the place to learn initially about the game with quick access to help!
Moving forward, we want to utilize platform-specific features to communicate with those audiences information relevant to them, by continuing This Week in the Realm but also tying in our other communication styles and forms. This is a big change & we understand that it'll take time for us to show you all why this is an improvement, so stay tuned for future Update Notes, blogs, and Chronicles to see how we better utilize not just Steam but all platforms to get more information directly in player's hands.
